The mission of this survey and report is to create unique and actionable insight into investor attitudes, biases and preferences in healthcare opportunities in Europe, that can be used by our community to inform their decisions and strategy. We believe the report helps address one of the fundamental challenges facing the life science industry in the UK and Europe: The dearth of financing opportunities, and we are very proud to share it with you.
Biotech & Money’s investor survey and interviews were conducted across the range of the investment community. In total, 177 people completed the survey and we directly interviewed 10. Most of those taking part in the survey were investors; those from the Buy-Side made up nearly 70% of respondents.
Clear trends and opinions emerged, especially on Biotech company management skill-sets, M&A expectations, investment trends, and investment risks. At the same time, the survey looked at several myths and attitudes assumed to be common in the Biotech sector: some were supported by this survey, some weren’t.
